France
Patchwork Europe is being held 16-19 September in the Alsace region of France. Like the Loch Lomond, Scotland quilt show I attended a couple years ago, this will be held at multiple venues in 4 villages across the area.
My husband and I are spending some time in France since my retirement from the Air Force and it has worked out perfectly to spend some time at the quilt show. We are currently in the Alsace region of France and will be driving to Lorraine on 17 September. The drive is not that long so we will have plenty of time to see some quilts while I am here.
Anyone else have plans to attend? I've messaged Chantalida to see if she is attending.

Wow Lorna! I am feeling a little green right now. I've only been to France once, 9 years ago, and I fell in love with it. I went on a trips with my cousins. We did not make it to the Alsace region, but were close. We went to the Franche-Comte region where out great grandfather came from. Not surprising since my maiden name is Comte. We had a wonderful time and the people there were so friendly. I would love to be able to attend the quilt shows. I am glad your DH is happy going with you. Enjoy the show and share your pictures with us.

The closest I've been to France is a car sitting in my driveway right now that we are keeping for friends who are now in France for 3 weeks! We live near the airport, so often let people park for free in our driveway and then drive them to and pick them up from the airport. If needed, they stay overnight. At least I'm a small part of the travel adventures and it's my way of partially realizing my dream of having a B&B.

Wow,, Wendy you have a memory like a vault! My DH went by himself because I really wasn't feeling up to the 8 hour drive (which he took in 2 shots on the way, but did the entire thing yesterday on the way home). Besides, it was only London, Ontario - besides missing him I also missed going to my favourite Kaffe supply store. And missed the Strarford Theatre festival. Oh well, next year.

The quilt show was great! Quilts and other fiber arts were displayed in 21 sites spread over 4 villages of the Val d'Argent area. (They used to mine silver in this area, hence the name. I know that because one of the venues was mining museum.) The setting was beautiful. The weather left something to be desired and if if wasn't for that and my low camera battery I'd show more pictures of the area. I will share a sample or two of the different exhibits. Some you have seen before if you are caught up on the shows here, for example Sheila Frampton Cooper was there with an exhibit of her quilts. There was also a display entitled the Best of QuiltCon 2015 from the Modern Quilt Guild. Many of those looked familiar to me, though it was awesome to see in person. I can't remember if Pam Rupert was on Quilt Show or not, but it seems I have seen her quilts before.
Rainy weather all day, but didn't let that stop us. Each village has beautiful flowers everywhere!

Exhibit 2 was held at the museum I mentioned earlier. In addition to info on the mining in the area they also had several looms set up. The quilting exhibit was showing what students had made after a workshop. They were page sized and the exhibit consisted of two "books" of the completed pages.
